Queseda:

In all honesty I think the SW really shot themselves in the foot with their performance in this election. For me, the battle for 2023 should be between the SS(they really turned up) and SW.
You Yorubas are still yet to understand that Nigerian politics is all about personal interest because it's a winner-takes-all. Your brothers across the Niger understand this very well and you can see that in the way they gave block votes to GEJ in 2015 despite his poor performance in office, I have said it many times, you guys run the risk of taking the backseat as far as politics is concerned if you don't learn to put your money where your mouth is. The same okoros who call you all sorts of names for your alliance with the north are secretly negotiating behind you but will come here to gloat and grunt about not giving a Bleep about political positions, the recently concluded elections have shown that but the entire SW just dodged a bullet, thanks to the huge votes from the North.
The problem with SW in my opinion is that you people take too much significance into what others think about you, because I really can't explain why PDP got such huge numbers despite their very poor records in the region. Make I no talk much as una be my inlaws

Reference my post many months ago. The SW does not deserve the APC ticket! Next time, they will learn to put their money where their mouth is

omenka:


WHAT EXACTLY IS STOPPING THE POLITICIANS IN SOUTH EAST FROM PUSHING FOR PDP TO GIVE THEM THE TICKET COME 2023 AS THE DESERVE IT MORE THAN ANYONE ELSE?

Why cant the ticket be given them?

A slave has no right to the throne, here lies the answer to your question

All these futile attempts to launder GEJ's image at every given opportunity, speaks volume about how insecure Jonathanians feel. No matter what Reno and his gullible swines feel, those of us who don't suffer selective amnesia knows the truth.
GEJ is democratic but sent soldiers to seize newspapers because of unfavorable headlines, used soldiers to attack protesters during the 'occupy Nigeria' protests, his wife molested a seating governor(Amaechi), used soldiers to rig elections in Ekiti.....and so on
No amount of image laundering can remove all these atrocities, as a matter of fact, there's nothing Buhari has done that GEJ didn't do(if not worse)
Power intoxicates, and I'm yet to see any President who didn't misuse power since 1999, the only exception being the late Yaradua
Reno should stop insulting our intelligence with his unending attempts at rewriting history, GEJ was a failure!

And when has demanding a change for better leadership become a crime, this Reno is just one bitter soul who will never recover from the loss of GEJ. Anyone who felt Jonathan should have been left to continue despite his woeful performance is either a tribalist or one political jobber like Reno. Sowore demanded for better leadership than Jonathan has to offer by supporting Buhari, and it's the same better leadership he's demanding by organizing a protest against the same Buhari he supported in 2015. Is there a law that forbids anyone from protesting against someone you once supported if you feel the person isn't living to your expectations? Reno will die a bitter man

State001:
A former Minister of Aviation, Mr Femi Fani-Kayode, has alleged that Fulanis pose a danger to Nigeria's stability, peace and unity, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV reports that Fani-Kayode made the claims on his verified Twitter handle, @realFFK, on Saturday (yesterday).

He accused the group of having insatiable lust for power, alleging that President Muhammadu Buhari has Islamisation agenda for the country.

“The greatest danger to Nigeria's stability, peace and unity is the insolent and rappacious disposition and insatiable lust for power of the Fulani hegemonists coupled with the Fulanisation and Islamisation agenda of President Muhammadu Buhari”, he said.

For the last 59 years as a nation we have been swimming in one big massive soakaway and the stench is unbearable”, Fani-Kayode added.

@bolded, and it's the Fulanis that have been ruling the entire 59years. This guy doesn't talk like a Yoruba, his DNA must have been altered, he talks like those foolish people

.

Sincerely, after reading this, I think I don't need further evidence that Yeebos are mentally sick, maybe it's a post-war thing but believe me, everyone of them I've worked with put emotions first before reason. They will believe anything to support their jaundiced views about the President, such a shame

Only thing that can safe Yahoo boy from arrest is put buhari sticker on ur wind screen efcc go over look u once

And na person born this one with brain the size of a pea, why don't you try it and let's see if it works for you.

Jochabed:
Honestly, Buhari most Nigerians don't like you and you know it deep in your heart.
Your just like RAPE..you were FORCED,IMPOSED on us. You are just the President we have not the President we wanted.

Speak for yourself, not everyone has short memories like you. You people are just unbelievable, even Atiku was rejected in his domain in favour of Buhari and you come here to spew thrash.
Your online hatred counts for nothing, for every online hater, we have numerous 'offline' real-life lover of Buhari and I'm unapologetically one of them. Y'all paper tigers that can't do shit, Buhari will be your President till 2023 and there's nothing you or any of your colleagues in hatred can do about it.
Y'all can kiss my ass henceforth

Sunnycliff:


Go to imo thread and see what he's doing.

Ihedioha is working but we urge him to never give okoroawusa and his goons peace of mind for his high level lootocracy and familiocracy of our state heritage.

@bolded, but it's people like you who criticize Buhari for going after those who worked with GEJ for the same offence you want Okorocha nailed for. Hypocrisy should be your middle name, y'all from that side

Nigerians should not rejoice yet, Atiku will challenge the result in court

After going through most comments above, one really begins to wonder how a country has such a huge number of ignorant folks and unemployable graduates. For heaven's sake, should INEC bend the law because PDP candidates are leading in a neck-to-neck contest where the number of cancelled votes is greater than the margin of lead? I've not seen any of you attack INEC for declaring the elections in which an APC candidate is leading as inconclusive, as in the case of Plateau. Funny how these same set of ignorant folks will be shouting rule of law when it suits them but would want INEC to go against the law when it doesn't favour them. You're all victims of the damage PDP did to this country by looting the money for your proper education and enlightenment, I'm sorry for you all

You must be gullible to think those comments are from Kenyans. Don't be deceived by the names(anybody can bear any name on the internet) they're the usual bitter people from that side using Kenyan names to attack Kenyatta. Pathetic things

sarrki:
I recall Tinubu as governor. He appointed Igbos to his cabinet. Ben Akabueze who does national planing for Buhari, once did same for Lagos.

Tinubu had a spelling competition for young lads. Whoever won, was made governor for Lagos for a day. As in Tinubu literally vacated Alausa for the champ. He or she would travel with DSS escorts in Tinubus armoured jeep and wear his trademark cap, and seat on his seat. I recall, a certain Ebuka was the first beneficiary of this gesture. You need to see how Tinubu and his wife feted that boy. I was jealous.

Say what you like about Tinubu and Lagos, I've never witnessed large scale discrimination against Igbos.

Go to Lagos inland revenue service, you'd see Igbos working there. Are there no better educated Yorubas? Yet, Igbos are given some consideration.

I witnessed same in Ogun state.

Maybe, it's all these things that will make someone begin to imagine that Lagos is no man's land.


Lagos must Be protected

Yorubas are the architects of whatever rubbish the Igbos in Lagos say about them. Imagine, how can you employ foreigners to work in your civil service when you have thousands of unemployed SWners? How many non-Igbos will u find in SE state civil service? Zero! You keep playing the big brother role to ingrates at the detriment of your own people. To the extent of even granting them representation in the House of Assembly. Una mumu never do!

Omoluabi16:
I disagree. I reject this.

The north doesn't discreaminate like what obtains in the south so they will always win. Have u ever heard of a rift between the NE and NW? Can same be said of the South?

This can only come from APC, party of progressives

Why am I not surprised
Did Kanu just say "only Biafra can save us now"?
It's rather too early for this please let Atiku return from Court first, he might still save you
Who doesn't know the Biafra agitation is all a ploy to reap where they didn't sow
Filthy despicable pigs!

Don't be surprised people, it's the usual suspects again, the agents of divisiveness and ethnic jingoists, they've been conjuring all sort of things to create rift between the SW and the North, if you check my previous posts I have been warning Yorubas to be weary of their neighbours from the SE. If you see a snake and an Igbo man, kindly allow the snake to go in peace because the snake poses less harm compared to the bile and deep-seated hatred in the heart of an average Igbo.
Yorubas open your eyes before it's too late for you!

Most, if not all Yorubas in PDP are bastards. They are the ones selling out the region for their selfish gains. The Igbos deserve any sort of treatment meted out to them for poking their noses into what certainly isn't any of their business. Yorubas should be glad to have politicians in the mould of Tinubu who puts their interest first.

IntrovertedK:
It's only the Liberal character of the Yorubas that is killing us. We don't have same agenda like other tribes, we are free minded. Just because you offend my brother doesn't automatically make you my enemy. There has never been bloc vote in the SW. Don't expect it anytime soon either.

While this is a good thing, you need to evolve politically and start putting your interests first before any other considerations or forever take the backseat as far as politics in Nigeria is concerned. Check the numbers across the country, it is only the SW and NC that gives almost 50:50 votes to the two parties, the NC can be excused for its diversity, same can't be said of Yorubas. The North will always be winners and will only look for a reliable partner (that can help further their cause with Bloc votes) downsouth which the SW has unfortunately failed to show they're capable of. The SW either evolves politically or take the backseat

Yoruba own went down, they were almost at the same level before.

Asshurbanipal:

Nonsense. Yoruba masses rejected buhari. Yoruba nairalanders just are cowards. Have some balls and tell your northern master that your people have rejected buhari because he has failed. See how you are explaining like a slave who is scared of punishment from his master for failing to obey his command

Coming from someone whose tribe abandoned their Biafra cause for a VP slot. The joke is on you guys, you're the slaves in Nigeria and everyone knows it, that's why none of the two major political parties in Nigeria dare present an Igbo as presidential candidate, because a slave has no right to a throne, even a minority tribe like Ijaw have produced a President....and don't bug me with your usual stale rhetorics of 'Igbos don't need to be President" because we've all seen how you people have been feeling funky for an ordinary VP position, to the point that you snitched on your chief pig � - Nnamdi Kanu . Don't pour your frustrations on Yorubas, if you're a freeborn rather than a slave, you can form your phantom hamlet you call Biafra and see if your masters won't come for you like we did in 1966.
Despicable filthy pigs

OMG! Why is PDP so bent on destroying people's lives just to bring down the government? Evil will visit those behind these dastardly acts one by one IJN

Amarabae:

And how much did south west give buhari?
Go and face Ganduje aide Yakassi and leave south east alone

Lol....these treacherous people again, I already surmised in my post even before the elections that you people will always change every narrative to suit your prejudice against Yorubas. The Yorubas don't know how much risk they expose themselves to having hateful creatures like you in their midst.
Terrible things

ODVanguard:

As in ehn, you guys don't know how the mind of an average SE'ner works, you can't just satisfy them. If Atiku lose the SW the way GEJ did, they will abuse the hell out of you guys that you sold out the rest of the South as if you had an MOU with them. If it turns the other way and Atiku wins the SW, they will still mock you and say you sabotaged Buhari's re-election because you are 'traitors' or tell you how the Igbos dominate every state in the West and their votes made Atiku win in the SW

Darksider131:
Na only igbos tried for atiku Obi ....if all tribe were clannish like igbos nigeria will be like Afghanistan

P.s: NORTH PEOPLE are dragging nigeria back.. if we keep these people among us.. we will never go far.

Brothers, north people are our BACKWARDNESS

Fixed!

franchasng:
O to ge is good for Bukola Saraki but O to ge is not good for Tinubu, keep deceiving yourselves

For those saying that Lagos is developed by Tinubu, please let me educate you just small:

Lagos has been the capital city of Nigeria since 1914 after it was moved from Calabar. This means Lagos enjoyed federal government development just like Abuja today. Can any Abuja Mayor claim he built or developed Abuja to what it is today 90% of developments in Abuja is built by Federal Government, and mind you, Abuja became Nigeria's capital from 1991 december, now compare it with Lagos that became the capital city of Nigeria from 1914 january till December 1991.

In fact Lagos is going backward compared to other top city centers in Africa like Lagos and its all because of Tinubu's greed and grip on Lagos.

Lagos seaport enjoyed colonial master and federal government's immunity and favor, making it the most functional seaport in the whole of Nigeria where 80 - 95% of Nigeria's importation and exportation businesses take place, thereby bringing a concentration of multinational and indigenous businesses (both small, medium and large scale) to Lagos for ease of business transaction since most Nigerian businesses depend solely on importation from outside Nigeria.

What does this mean It means Lagos Internally Generated Revenue alone is almost same with that of Nigeria as a whole since 90% of most businesses are done through Lagos seaport making every business to move to Lagos to cut down cost of logistics, now tell me how this is Tinubu's making

A mad man will perform in Lagos due to the enormous IGR and concentration of companies, industries, businesses, entrepreneurs, etc in Lagos.

It is Federal government of Nigeria that built all the magnificent structures you see in Lagos today, quote me anywhere any day any time.

Name the structures Tinubu built in Lagos, name one if not planting flowers, building roundabouts and brt lanes, what else can Tinubu + Fashola + Ambode boast of as their developmental achievement in Lagos since democracy kicked off in 1999

3rd Mainland bridge and most bridges linking Lagos cities were built by federal government of Nigeria under the military government, and most of these structures are dilapidated before your own eyes without Lagos government being able to even maintain them.

Go round Lagos, most inter city, estate and street roads built by military governments are gone and local governments can't even maintain them simply because the LGA Chairmen remit large percentage of LGA development project funds to Tinubu and political allies, so LGAs are left with no money to maintain roads and infrastructures in their local government areas....

Travel round Lagos, you will spend hours in traffic on a journey of 20 minutes just because no good road networks in Lagos, the few good ones are filled with potholes, Lagos as we speak have no smooth roads again, its even Ambode that tried to build some new roads around Abule-egba, Epe, etc, before now, those areas are unmotorable, so what is Tinubu's developmental contribution to Lagos if not stealing and killing political opponents

The only laudable project started by Lagos is the Badagry railway to west africa which has been lingering since 2007...

The developments you see in Lagos are built by private organizations and individuals who reside in Lagos and have their investments in Lagos...Lagos is dying and going back due to Tinubu's grip and greed, kiss the truth

Typical Igbo always poking their nose in what's never their business, crying more than the bereaved. Go and tell Ekweremadu to stop running for Senate first. I don't know why you Yorubas are accommodating these snakes in your region sef

superior1:
Title is deceptive.

The Yorubas no longer playing politics of sentiments

You're surprised? The Yorubas that I know are not clannish and don't play politics of bitterness like their brothers across the Niger. They voted massively for GEJ in 2011 and voted against him in 2015 not because they hate him, but because he failed. I know you're expecting them not to vote PDP because Obi is on the ballot with Atiku but hey, the Yorubas don't reason the way u guys do

stephleena:

what's Igbo/Hausa alliance? what has light got to do with darkness?.
The religious disc2rimination is eating deep in ur land already.. Who's to be blamed?

@bolded, sorry I thought Atiku is from the North

35824L:
Yoruba have allowed iboes to exploit their religious differences to divide them. Shame! After all PMB did for them. If PMB wins, it is because of the bloc votes he is getting from the north, simple. Yoruba have let themselves down and will no longer be seen as a reliable partner. I am disappointed. Yoruba are taking their privileged position for granted. By the time they swap positions with the iboes that is when they will value what they have. The north will always lord it over the country because they have the population. It is who sticks with them that will partake in the sharing of the national cake.

God bless you. The Yoruba Christian vs Yoruba Muslim thing is gradually having its desired effect and I'm ashamed a tribe with so much native intelligence like Yorubas can easily fall for it. By the time the dust settles and Buhari wins, the West should just hide their face in shame because they didn't contribute nothing despite being the biggest gainers in this administration.
They will know the true meaning of marginalisation should an Igbo/Hausa alliance happen

The SW should just hide their face in shame if Buhari wins this election(by God's grace). The SS even try pass them, it's such a shame you guys got yourself played so easily. I dey shame for una
